RE: What I learnt this week 27: Shale's unsustainablity, The Fat One, Black Death Fake News, Dirty microwaves & Eternal Life!
The main issue I see here is that the only solution is going to be regulation, and that is incrediibly unlikely to be seen any time soon. All you can do is, well, tell your microwave what you think. The government will be listening.
Right but of course microwaves are much more efficient than the alternative cooking devices, how much energy would the UK use if everyone had to use a kettle on the stove to make their tea?
Correct, though I think the main crime is the materials being dumped and repurposed/recycled to such a huge extent, rather than the actual consumption of power like a kettle. Then again, I wonder how many kettles get replaced every year...
